anti-fouling paste
wrote in message ... In my MiniCup Fixing thread I mentioned an anti-fouling paste experiment I did. A long time ago, for some reason I was too cheap, maybe too poor to have my old 23' sailboat hauled to re-paint the bottom of her keel which had the bottom paint rubbed off because I always try to go places she should not go and consequently rub the paint off. Figuring there were other poor or cheap people who wanted a way to apply anti-foulant to limited areas under water, I decided to make an antifouling paste that would go on while the boat is in the water. So, mixed up a mess of a commercially available waxy material (the consistency of thick grease) that is designed to be used on underwater leaks with Bronze powder and dang if it didnt work. Unfortunately, it turns out that few people are as cheap as I am and I found no buyers for it. How long did it last? stick to the hull I mean. |
